humiliation in a blog part IV: race day

...or not.

my face has been buried in this since 7:00 last night.
okay, not this one. this one is in chile. but one like unto it.

eating was a bad, bad idea.

i was only trying to prepare myself for the race.

i was sick earlier this week and haven't really been able to eat, but i thought since i was running a 5K today i'd better eat something....
i was wrong. oh so wrong.

i knew i would regret these posts. so they end today, with my ultimate humiliation.
after exposing my extreme running slowness to you all, i'm not even running the race today.

sad.

p.s. go give andrea some words of encouragement since
i had to back out and leave her all alone, running this race
by herself today. I'M SORRY, ANDREA. DON'T HATE ME!
